8. Setting up the network server If more than one DocuColor 2006 printing connection (for example, Print queue and Hold queue) is published, you may want to create a printer for each print connection so that you and other users can print to each queue directly. Configuring clients of a Windows NT 4.0 or Windows 2000 server Each client of a Windows NT 4.0 server is already using a network protocol to communicate with the server. Each client can print to the DocuColor 2006 if the printer is shared by a Windows NT 4.0 or Windows 2000 server or workstation. In that case, the client workstation does not have to use the same network protocol to connect to the Windows NT 4.0 or Windows 2000 server as the server uses to communicate with the printer. 1. For Windows NT 4.0 client workstations, before printing, connect to the print server and select the printer. 2. Right-click the icon and select the Open option. 3. Select Yes to have Windows set up the printer. After clients have selected the printer, they can choose it from Print Setup, Page Setup or Print dialog box of their application. Clients can change printing options for their own job, but printer properties are not selectable. When a client selects Print, the job is transmitted to the Windows NT 4.0 or Windows 2000 print server and on to the selected queue on the DocuColor 2006. The job is listed in the Print Manager on the client workstation, and the administrator can track it in the DocuColor 2006 window in the Print Manager on the Windows NT 4.0 or Windows 2000 print server.

Each client of a Windows NT 4.0 server is already using a network
protocol to communicate with the server. Each client can print to the
DocuColor 2006 if the printer is shared by a Windows NT 4.0 or
Windows 2000 server or workstation. In that case, the client
workstation does not have to use the same network protocol to
connect to the Windows NT 4.0 or Windows 2000 server as the server
uses to communicate with the printer.
